The key ingredient to maximizing the peak performance of a diesel engine is increasing the amount of diesel being burned. On old mechanical-injection engines, the only way to do this was to modify the ...

If you’re in fleet management or the construction industry, you undoubtedly have machines that run on diesel fuel. In addition to large trucks, more than 75% of all heavy construction equipment uses ...

High-pressure common rail fuel (HPCR) systems are standard on nearly every diesel engine today, from heavy equipment to over-the-road trucks, light-duty trucks, large generators and more. HPCR fuel ...

Researchers have developed a promising yet surprisingly simple modification to diesel engines that could hold the key to reducing the complexity, maintenance, and size and weight of emission ...

Diesel injectors fail because of two main reasons. The first has to do with the mechanical soundness of the injector structure, and the second has to do with the quality of the fuel running through ...

SAE Transactions, Vol. 85, Section 1: 760005–760162 (1976), pp. 491-501 (11 pages) A penetration is forecast of the diesel engine, in both direct and indirect form, into the medium and pick-up truck ...

Sandia National Laboratories researchers (left to right: Nathan Harry, Christopher Nilsen, Drummond Biles, and Charles Mueller) show off their prototype of ducted fuel injection module for diesel ...

IPA’s new diesel fuel injection cleaner and primer (#9080) keeps portability in mind as it cleans, primes and troubleshoots diesel injection systems. The 9080 comes with an internal 12 volt DC fuel ...

Corus has developed a new range of extremely clean steels that will help manufacturers of diesel fuel injection systems meet the demand for cars with improved performance, better fuel efficiency and ...

Diesel engines use compression to ignite the fuel, which needs to have an even burn, and cetane boosters have an important role to play in this process.

Scientific American is part of Springer Nature, which owns or has commercial relations with thousands of scientific publications (many of them can be found at www ...

Amsoil's diesel All-in-One fuel additive combines the benefits of Amsoil Diesel Injector Clean, Diesel Cold Flow, and Diesel Cetane Boost in one package. According to the company, the additive ...
